Abstract

A mobile device (MS) that comprises an interface card slot (SLOT) to mechanically and electrically connect two types of replaceable interface cards, of first type (MMC) and of second type (SIM), which interface cards have a certain size, use and contact surfaces (K1,K2) according to their type, where the size, use and grouping of contact surfaces deviate from each other, a first contact organ (C1) for making contact to the contact surface of an interface card of the first type (MMC), a second contact organ (C21 ,C22) for making contact to the contact surface of an interface card of the second type (SIM), means (H1) for attaching an interface card of the first type removably to the interface card slot, means (H1,7&6) for attaching an interface card of the second type removably to the interface card slot, and means (RC1) for indicating the type of the current interface card based on the difference of the types of interface card, in order to make it possible for the mobile device to use the interface card attached to it.
